Yes but people who do not love each other at all can still have sex.
This is a misunderstanding.
Sex IS designed for an expression of love through marriage. We have corrupted it into a completely different, immoral act. You cannot compare sex in marriage to premarital sex. There is a huge diference.

Sex is merely a physical activity.
I don't believe that. Sex was designed to be much more than a typical immoral act this world has made it out of.
Once again, it is an action that expresses love. It is NOT love, but it IS an act that demonstrates the love that two people have for each other, provided its in the manner God created it for.

What you say is true to a point. And that point is that you are discussing the original purpose/design of sex while the rest of us are discussing the act.
In a perfect world sex would only occur between a man and his wife as a physical outpouring of their love for each other. IN which case sex would always be an act of love.
But this is not a perfect world. sexual activity happens all over the place where it wasn't designed for. Sex can be an act of control (rape?), or of hate (abuse?) or perversion (homosexual behavior?) etc. See what I mean?
(BTW, I'd prefer if we were still in a perfect world.)

Please give me some input on why some men say they want women they can respect, trust, etc, etc...but when the woman makes it clear that she is not going to have premarital sex the man is no longer interested. OR he thinks she is playing hard to get which appears to be a challenge but when he realizes that she is really really serious there is no longer interest.
You must not be dealing with Christian men, since fornication is a sin. Any Christian man pressuring a sister into fornication needs to be reported to church leadership immediately and any church leader doing such should be exposed to the entire church.
Christian men need to have a standard and live according to it.

Then he is not the man for you, Respect yourself because your worth it. Not because man say they want you too, God will send the Right man for you. If he acts this way now what will he act like after you are married? Ask God to help you find the right man, then look for a man who is worth your time. A man who will respect you because of your woth and not of looks alone.
May God Bless you and help you in your search,
Mark
